I figured with all the bs of college football FINALLY being over that now would be a good as a time as any for us to roll into Royal Rumble talk and try and figure out Wrestlemania as well( or at least how you would like to see it shake out).

For the Rumble I would have
Punk win with the help of Brock Lesnar setting up a Rock vs Lesnar feud at Wrestlemania
Rybeck win the Rumble and go on to face Big Show

Not with Punk I'm totally ripping this off someone on the internet but it was so great that I love it. Punk gets on the mic the day after the Rumble and says how he has destroyed EVERYONE in his path leading to Wrestlemania. He has nothing left to prove, there are ZERO challengers to him this year and blah blah blah. Cut to BONG, The Undertaker comes out and doesn't say a word. He just sits there face to face with Punk with the big ass Wrestlemania banner in the back ground.

I really don't know what you do with John Cena though. That is probably my biggest hangup on this thing. I don't want to see another once in a lifetime match with The Rock as Cena has been getting his ass kicked all year long. It doesn't intrigue me this year like it did last year. HHH coming back to fight Lesnar has almost less interest for me than Cena/Rock 2. I'd like to see Cena do something with Team Hell No vs The Shield I suppose.

Cena vs Ziggler is another possibility but I'm not sure how they are supposed to drag this on for another 2-3 months and not having Cena in a big money feud at WM seems like a waste of his star power.

I was thinking about this last night while watching RAW. I figure Rock will beat Punk for the title and he will face Cena again at Mania for the title.

Then Punk will come out on RAW the monday after the Rumble and will spin losing the title as some good thing because it frees him up to now focus on doing something no one has ever done and how he is the only one capable of doing it and will call out Taker and challenge him to a mania match.

Either way it happens, I really hope they put Punk and Taker together.

Punk vs Taker has to happen right? I mean why do you have Taker come back again? It made no sense last year for him to fight HHH but they did it anyways. Punk vs Taker has money written all over it. I think if somehow you keep the title on Punk and have him go into WM still the champ than there is going to be legitimate thought that Punk beats Taker at WM(something you really haven't thought for the last 4-5 years in an Undertaker match) (which adds even that much more fuel to that match). Gotta somehow keep the title on Punk.

If Punk has the title and then Taker wins the match (which HAS to happen), what do you do with Taker and the title?

You could have Taker win by DQ.

Hmmm yeah, but do you really want the streak to continue with a win like that?

The streak should end. Now I think the streak was a way to push Taker and ultimately I think it's used to push someone new to the moon. A guy like HHH or HBK never needed that win because they could put on high quality matches and they were in the twilight of their carers anyways so it would have done zero for them. Cut to the day after Wrestlemania and Punk has just beat The Undertaker in the middle of the ring at Wrestlemania. Punk has done it all he's bigger than Taker,HBK,HHH,Jericho,Rock,Cena, etc etc. You have a star that people are going to be paying top dollar to see him get his ass kicked. People don't want to see him get beat anymore, oh no they want to see him hurt. Cue Stone Cold Steve Austin Wrestlemania 30 build.


You don't have your main event at Wrestlemania end via DQ or countout(that's the type of booking that killed the Miz/Cena match.

I agree. That was just one way it could end if they wanted to keep the streak alive.

Hmmm, yeah I guess I can see that. I am not sure I like the idea of the streak ending though. But I will think on it some more.

Is there any word on what Taker thinks of Punk?

From what Mark told me, he's a fan of Phil's work.

ass.

I was just curious if Taker has spoken about Punk at all. I doubt Taker would agree to end the streak to someone he does not respect.

I like brock Lesnar to win the RR. That puts him in the building for helping Punk with the screwjob on the Rock. Don't forget Dwayne's GI joe movie got pushed back to the week before WM. Rock wins the belt at RR even though Lesnar interferes, carries the strap around TV for the month of March. Brock V Rock is your main event. Punk v Taker does not need a belt on the line to make it a money match.

Rumbel:
SHIELD attacks after ref bump. Cena comes to help but ref wakes up and costs Rock title match.
Ryback wins Rumbel.


Elimination Chamber:
Six man elimination match like War Games. Cena, Rock, and Ryback vs. Shield.

Mania:
Lesnar-Taker
Rock-Punk
Cena-Ziggler
Show-Ryback

_________________

There's no reason to end the streak unless it's to make the next top guy. Punk is already established, and he doesn't plan on being around much longer. His words. This should be someone under the age of thirty that's rapidly getting over. Someone that can take the position as the face of the company for a decade. They don't have that guy. Sadly, the closest thing would be Ryback. No.

_________________

Now that Punk retirement is imminent, does he go full time announcer?

Or does he take his talents back to the north side?

I could see Punk taking time off in the next year, return for about two years, leave, and start on a Jericho schedule. Perhaps sliding into an announcer/PT wrestler type deal.

I like it, but I don't think Mania main event should be a 3-way.

They really don't have an option for cena/punk unless there in the title picture. Can't see cena/zig begin stretched out that far. Plus don't see taker/punk as an option as there is to much back story to taker /lesnar. So you sorta half to put the three togeather. Rock wins at rumbel, rematch dq at chamber and cena wins #1 contender. = 3 way dance

I have no interest in Cena-Rock again. None.

And I want him nowhere near Punk and Rock.

Matching him with Taker gives him a high profile match.

Spoiler from tonight's Smackdown taping:











The leader of the Mexus, Alberto Del Rio, beat Big Show in a last man standing match to become the new World Heavyweight Champion.

Glad to have Big Show done with the title. But Alberto? Meh.

After seeing the Smackdown spoilers, I'm going with something like this:

Rumbel
Winner: Ziggler
Punk retains title
If Ortman isn't full heel by then, he turns at Rumbel. Involves Sheamus.

Mania
The Shield vs Tyson Kidd, Justin Gabriel, Sin Cara (Dark Match)

MITB: Claudio (winner), Brodus, LCW, Swagger, Kofi, Sin Cara, 3MB

Team Hell No vs. Rhodes Scholars - No DQ match

some sort of chick stuff

Wade (IC Champ) vs The Miz (US Champ)

The Ryback vs. Big Show

Cena vs Orton (heel)

Sheamus vs Punk for title. (sheamus wins #1 contendership at Chamber)

ADR vs Ziggler (Rumbel winner) for title.

Brock vs Trips

Rock vs Taker

(Punk vs Taker does nothing for me, we saw him vs Trips twice, Brock or Ryback would kill him, and no one else is believable unless they did a big build with Cena as a heel and thats not going to happen). The only reason I can think of having Show drop the title on Smackdown is the wood Vince must have trying to imagine Claudio giving his finisher to Show. They don't want to give Claudio the title yet so they took it off Show...
